EasyChair Preprint 8823

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of one of the earliest Mansi dictionary dated to the second half of the XVIII century. It is known about the source that it was recorded in Solikamsk, near the places of residence of Pelym Mansi, speakers of the Western dialect. However, there are no clear indications of the involvement of the language of this dictionary with the Western Mansi dialect. The graphic-phonetic analysis of Simeon Cherkalov's dictionary based on the diagnostic signs of László Honti allows us to get an answer about his dialect affiliation.

Keyphrases: Cherkalov's dictionary, Mansi language, XVIII century, archival data, dialect affiliation
